Peter Tork: What his questionnaire reveals about him Permalink
His answers reveal a fine intelligence and a strong character. His mind is precise, decisive and forceful, but these characteristics are partly hidden by his readiness to laugh, his good nature and easy-going attitude. He is clown-like, tends to be free and easy, rather bohemian.
Separating the true Peter Tork from the false is difficult because he likes to play many parts. However, he believes very much in what he does and has a spontaneous kindness. Amid all the clowning, his critical intelligence is always at work, preventing him from going too far.
Generous and unselfish, he is a gay and sympathetic person who does not believe in getting bogged down.
What is strong in his character: he has intelligence and high spirits, good self control, is good-natured, gay and sociable. He knows how to adapt himself, is active and practical, and has artistic talent with strong commercial aptitudes.
What is weak in his character: he has a tendency to be too sceptical. He worries and is not generally satisfied with his situation in life. He has a distrusting nature, is too proud and a little conceited.
Conclusions: Peter Tork is an astute person with a practical sense and a desire for achievement which is often frustrated by his love of fooling.
